Re: The Xbox One Thread
 
I think it's something like "Xbox, watch <full channel name>"

Planner control... I think that bit needs a SmartGlass update.

The current SmartGlass has basic play/pause/F/R PVR controls, but I had an XBL message this morning saying that a preview version of SmartGlass is available (links in the preview forums) for Windows/Android... I guess that will be the version that adds the OneGuide and additional PVR controls.

Although as I'm on iOS I guess I'll have to wait for the public release :(

Right now I don't believe "Xbox, watch channel" works. The post about this going live says this:

Quote:

Voice Control of OneGuide – will be limited to “See It, Say It” functionality. In other words, if you can see it on the screen and it is highlighted in Green, then you will be able to navigate with your voice. The ability to say “Xbox, watch <channel name>” will be limited or non-existent during the early stages of the OneGuide update preview.

When watching TV you can go to a channel by saying Xbox watch (Channel Name). It works for me. Only channels that are in your favorites will work thou. Also the new SmartGlass beta app is in Play store for Android devices. Also in Windows store for Surface. Not available for iOS yet thou. I like the new beta SmartGlass. Can change channels via the One Guide on it oh and it now allows you to rearrange your Pins however you want them and it updates it to your Xbox One as well

Can anyone help with the Strict NAT issue and SH2
I've tried everything, even investing in a pair of powerline adaptors.

My son is driving me nuts - he can play online but not communicate with friends.

I had this problem and solved it (with help here) by going into the X1 settings and giving at a static IP.

Then in the SH2 you will need to go to the Port Forwarding section and open the following ports 53, 80, 88, 500, 3074, 3544, 4500 (Protocol to both TCP/UDP)

I have used DHCP to reserve the IP and opened all ports via DMZ to this IP and it's still Strict.

I even purchased some powerline adaptors and tried the wired option, still Strict.

RUMOUR

Someone on the Plex forums has claimed that he has been granted membership of ID@Xbox *specifically* to develop a Plex app for the Xbox One.

He is *not* a member of the Plex dev team, nor any other kind of Plex employee.

*If* the Xbox One were to gain a Plex client, it would mean that people could finally enjoy "pull" streaming like on the 360 and PS3, instead of being limited to the current crappy "push" streaming.

This was also mentioned on Engadget.

Yeah, I've seen that. I've not seen any other remotely decent site report on it, though. I only found out yesterday 'cos someone on DS mentioned it, so I Googled and found mention on Reddit that linked to the Plex forum thread.

Not sure if other sites just haven't bothered yet as it's the weekend, or if they're avoiding it because it's all currently rumour based upon someone making claims on a forum.

First of all if you are opening ports manually to your Xbox do not use a DMZ so undo this first, turn off UPnP and all firewall features on the router. Do not turn off NAT.

http://portforward.com/

Follow the instructions from the link above and be sure to set up static ip to the Xbox. It may be worth checking the DHCP list of the router first to get the Mac and IP address of the XBone.
1. In Brown writing near the top of the page pick the one that applies (How to port forward the Xbox one) your console.
2. Then pick your router from the list, Supper hub one and two are made by Netgear. Then scroll down and pick Virgin_Media_Super_Hub_2 from the list.
3. Follow the instructions on how to set static IP and what ports need to be opened for your make of router.
4. Power down the router and Xbox for a minute and then do a multi player network test in settings on XBone. (Nat Open?)

I did read that for call of duty ghosts you may also need port 3075 to be forwarded. This may well be linked only to people that also have a 360 on their network?

Also I have had a problem with XBone mic not working due to the way the kinect associates which profile to who is holding the controller. So you can try turning off Kinect, or before loading your game select settings then kinect. Here you can see yourself with your profile name above your head.
Do you see a controller next to your profile name? If not make sure kinect can see the lights on the front of the controller and press a button. Now you should see a little controller by your name.
I have been drinking so am struggling, I will check back tomorrow.

Think of your router being a public building with many departments and front door security, you have one bouncer called NAT who is checking everyone who is coming and going. Another called firewall that is also checking all who come and go after NAT. Forwarding ports manually is telling Nat to let friends in and out of the gaming department no delay( xbox static ip).

Setting a static ip address to your console is like telling your gaming department not to ever change rooms in the building as you are about to tell the bouncer to send gaming friends to this room only.

Putting your console in a DMZ is like opening a fire door to your gaming department so all can come and go to that particular room (ip address) with no bouncer, but locking the internal door to the rest of the building. Example stopping the console from using Xbox smart glass on a tablet or phone, think of each device being a different department with the ip address being the door number of that particular department.

With UPnP turned on you also have a third bouncer telling Nat who can come and go? Things at the door are now becoming slow and complicated with Nat allowing friend to come and go but then firewall stopping them making mistakes and slowing the process turning away friends. Opening up your ports is telling Nat to let friends in and out no questions asked to a particular department only( xbox Static ip).

So sack Firewall and UPnP. manually give rules to NAT ( opening up ports). And things will improve at the door!

Remember to always power down the router after saving new settings. In fact power all internet devices including Xbox for a minute. After reading everything on the net about which ports to open and trying many configurations just follow the instructions for your make and model as all routers are different, the guys at portforrward have already done the hard work.
